Famous quotes containing the words perfect and/or tree:
“We say justly that the weak person is flat, for, like all flat substances, he does not stand in the direction of his strength, that is, on his edge, but affords a convenient surface to put upon. He slides all the way through life.... But the brave man is a perfect sphere, which cannot fall on its flat side and is equally strong every way.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a desire fulfilled is a tree of life.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 13:12.
